Official Texas Tech pwns Texas Thread

I haven't been around to do one of these in a while so yeah..

Anyone seeing this one sided game?

I'm quite impressed by Texas Tech right now and the way they are dominating this game on both ends of the field..

So now I probably jinx 'em

Hey Kelly Pavlik you got beat by an old fart

Not just beat but Bernard Hopkins looked like a 30 year old again.. He pwned this undefeated middleweight champion hardcore winning probably all 12 rounds. He couldn't quite get the knockout but Pavlik couldn't quite get a good body punch in either.

Bookmaker accepts Record 1 Million USD College Football Wager

Online Sportsbook Accepts Record $1,000,000 USD College Football Wager

BookMaker.com CEO Mickey Richardson announced today that the online sportsbook will accept a record-setting $1,000,000 USD bet on U.S. college football by professional sports handicapper Joe "The Factsman" Apricena.

The million dollar bet is whether The Factsman Apricena can finish the 2008 college football season with a better win-loss record than Richardson after making 30 picks on BookMaker.com with a minimum of one pick per week. The Factsman's BookMaker.com challenge starts on August 28th, 2008, the opening weekend of the college football 2008 season, and goes on through the college bowl season in December 2008 and must include the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) national championship game in January 2009.

On his sports handicapping website, SportsForumPicks.com, home of The Factsman, Apricena has a documented winning percentage of 64% on his college football picks over the past 10 years, a number of professional sports handicappers in Las Vegas and lines makers at offshore sportsbooks have noted that The Factsman is masterful in his ability to exploit betting lines on small schools in college football and basketball, where most sportsbooks lose their edge.

"Sportsbooks do most of their homework on the top 25 college teams in the country because that's where they'll see most of their action," explained Apricena. "But on the other games each week, I'll find five- to eight-point mistakes all year long." After consulting with his line management team at BookMaker.com regarding the million dollar bet, CEO Mickey Richardson has a different take on The Factsman's challenge. "Bring it on," said Richardson, to what Apricena responded "I'll bury him by Thanksgiving."

This is not the first time The Factsman Apricena has made a million dollar bet against Richardson. In 2006, Apricena won a similar $1,000,000 USD bet against Richardson on Major League Baseball. The Factsman needed to win better than 68% of his picks and won the bet with a winning percentage of 72%. When Richardson refused a rubber match on baseball action he challenged Apricena to a similar wager on the National Football League (NFL) season in 2007, which Apricena lost after falling behind early in the season.

Both agreed to settle the rubber match in college football this year, "I have a great deal of respect for The Factsman," said Richardson. "In 23 years of business our sportsbook has never shut out a player, sharp or otherwise, and we're not going to start now."

To track the results of this contest all picks will be submitted every Friday on SportsForumPicks.com

Joe "The Factsman" Apricena is a professional sports handicapper with a well-documented reputation for being the strongest baseball handicapper of the last two decades. It's well-known that most sportsbooks in Vegas and online will not accept plays by The Factsman himself. Based out of Clearwater, Florida, The Factsman and his weekly college football picks for 2008 can be found at SportsForumPicks.com

Perhaps the most online but I wonder what the highest bets ever were for sports?

So we know they drug test these olympics competitors but..

Do they physically check some of these female swimmers over to find out if they have a penis or not?

What about the 130lb weightlifting broads lifting like 3x their body weight?

Why the hell do I got to stream olympic baseball and..

Okay, I don't mind swimming or beach volleyball but gymnastics and cylcing type shit just isn't my thing so why if I want to watch USA play in what probably is the last year of olympic baseball do I got to stream it online as my only option?
